New Delhi/IBNS: India and China on Tuesday held a high-level meeting in Beijing where both sides reviewed the status along the border.
The 33rd meeting of the Working Mechanism for Consultation & Coordination on India-China Border Affairs (WMCC) was led by Gourangalal Das, Joint Secretary (East Asia), and Hong Liang, Director General of the Boundary & Oceanic Affairs Department of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Held in a positive and constructive atmosphere, the meeting comprehensively reviewed the situation along the Line of Actual Control in the India-China border areas, the Ministry of External Affairs said in a statement.
Peace and tranquility on the border are critical for the smooth development of overall bilateral relations.

The two sides agreed to maintain and strengthen relevant diplomatic and military mechanisms towards this end.

The two sides agreed to work together to make substantial preparations for the next meeting of the Special Representatives (SR), which will be held in India later this year.
The Indian delegation leader paid a courtesy call on Assistant Foreign Minister Hong Lei.
